Abstract:	The purpose of this study is to characterize the Seulimeum fault system in Krueng Raya, Aceh Besar (Indonesia) using magnetic method. The magnetic survey was performed using G-856 proton magnetometer and the spacing between station was 50-300 m randomly. The magnetic data was processed by utilizing Microsoft excels and Surfer8 software which was displayed in a form of contouring and revealed fault zones. The local magnetic value covers -700 to 650 nT. The magnetic results showed the trend pattern of low residual value at north part and a lot of spotted high residual value surround Krueng Raya which was indicated as fault zones. Magnetic results and geologic mapping indicated that the area is bounded by major faults.
